# Ingredients:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1 teaspoon baking soda
03 - 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
04 - 1/4 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

05 - 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
06 - 1 cup packed light brown sugar
07 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar
08 - 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
09 - 2 large eggs
10 - 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

→ Add-ins

11 - 1 cup chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
12 - 3/4 cup Reese’s Pieces candies
13 - 3/4 cup Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips
14 - 1/2 cup semisweet or milk chocolate chips (optional)

# Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined. Set aside.
03 - In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and creamy peanut butter using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
04 - Add eggs one at a time to the creamed mixture, mixing well after each addition. Blend in the pure vanilla extract until smooth.
05 - Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain a soft cookie texture.
06 - Gently fold in chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Reese’s Pieces candies, peanut butter chips, and chocolate chips if using.
07 - Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for approximately 30 minutes to help prevent spreading and enhance flavor.
08 - Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie. Roll into balls and arrange on prepared baking sheets, spacing cookies 2 inches apart. Optionally, press additional candies or peanut butter cup pieces on top.
09 - Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are golden and centers remain soft. Cookies will appear slightly underbaked.
10 - Allow cookies to cool on the baking tray for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

# Notes:

01 - Chilling the dough enhances flavor and prevents cookies from spreading excessively during baking.
02 - For visually stunning cookies, press additional candy pieces on top just before baking.
